How much does it cost to legalise a Police Clearance for the Indonesia embassy?

Embassy consular fee สอบถามเจ้าหน้าที่ + Thai MFA legalization (THB 200–400) + certified translation (THB 800–1,500/page) + NYC Legal service fee สอบถามเจ้าหน้าที่ — typically THB 6,000–12,000 all-in.

How long does the Indonesia legalization take?

Thai MFA 2–3 days + Embassy of Indonesia 7-14 วัน — 7–21 business days end to end, with express options where the mission allows.

Do I need the Thai MFA stamp before the Indonesia embassy?

Yes — every Thai document must be legalised by the Department of Consular Affairs (Chaeng Watthana) before the Embassy of Indonesia will authenticate it.

Does the Police Clearance need to be translated first?

In most cases yes — the Police Clearance must be translated into a language the Indonesia mission accepts, certified by an MFA-recognised translator, then legalised together with the original.

What is a legalised Police Clearance used for in Indonesia?

Visa and immigration filings, marriage, study, employment, pensions and legal matters. Popular documents at this mission: Authentication, Notarized Translation.

Can I apostille a Thai Police Clearance instead of using the Indonesia embassy?

No. Thailand is not part of the Hague Apostille system for this route, so a Thai Police Clearance for Indonesia must go through Thai MFA legalization and then Embassy of Indonesia authentication — not an apostille.

Do I need to appear in person at the Indonesia embassy?

In most cases no — NYC Legal submits and collects on your behalf with an authorisation letter. A few document types (e.g. certain declarations) may require your signature, and we will tell you in advance if so.

How recent must my Police Clearance be for Indonesia?

Many missions expect the underlying Police Clearance to be issued within the last 3–6 months. We confirm the current requirement for the Indonesia embassy at booking so you don't legalise a document that will be rejected as stale.

What does a legalised Police Clearance for Indonesia cost in total?

Typically THB 6,000–12,000 all-in: Indonesia consular fee (สอบถามเจ้าหน้าที่), MFA legalization (THB 200–400), certified translation (THB 800–1,500/page) and our service fee (สอบถามเจ้าหน้าที่). You get an exact quote up front.

Can you ship the finished Police Clearance outside Thailand?

Yes. We deliver a scanned PDF immediately and courier the legalised original by EMS or DHL to any address in Indonesia or worldwide.

Legalising a Thai Police Clearance for Indonesia

If you are relocating to, studying in, marrying in, or doing business with Indonesia, your Thai Police Clearance will only be accepted once it carries both the Thai MFA legalization stamp and the Indonesia embassy authentication. We prepare the certified translation, secure the consular stamp in Chaeng Watthana, and submit the file to the Indonesia mission at ถนนเพชรบุรี on your behalf.

Why the legalization chain is required

Legalization is a chain of trust, not a formality. When a Indonesia officer sees the embassy stamp on your Police Clearance, they are trusting the embassy, which trusted the Thai MFA, which trusted the issuing office. NYC Legal builds this chain in the correct order so the final Indonesia authority accepts the document without follow-up questions.

Certified translation requirements

Because the Indonesia embassy reads the translated text, translation accuracy directly determines acceptance. Names must match your passport exactly (including transliteration), dates must follow the destination format, and official Thai terminology must map to the correct Indonesia legal equivalent. We proofread against your passport and prior documents before submission.

Transparent, itemised pricing

Costs are itemised, never bundled opaquely. Expect the Indonesia consular fee (สอบถามเจ้าหน้าที่), the MFA legalization fee (THB 200–400 standard), translation (THB 800–1,500/page), and our handling fee (สอบถามเจ้าหน้าที่). We quote the exact total up front — including courier — so there are no counter-side surprises when your Police Clearance reaches the Indonesia mission.

Realistic timelines you can plan around

Turnaround is the sum of the chain: translation (1–3 days) + MFA (2–3 days) + Embassy of Indonesia (7-14 วัน). We sequence these to overlap wherever possible and track each counter daily. For genuinely urgent Police Clearance files we will tell you honestly whether your deadline is achievable before you pay.

What a legalised Police Clearance is used for

A legalised Police Clearance is commonly required by Indonesia for immigration and visa applications, marriage registration, family reunification, university admission, employment and work authorisation, pension and social-security claims, property or inheritance matters, and company registration. The most requested documents at the Indonesia mission include Authentication, Notarized Translation.

Common mistakes we help you avoid

The most frequent rejections we prevent: submitting the Police Clearance to the Indonesia embassy before the MFA stamp; name spellings that differ from the passport; an outdated document (many missions want issuance within 3–6 months); a translation missing a seal or marginal note; and photocopies where a certified true copy or original is required. We pre-flight every file against the Indonesia mission's current checklist.
